Sui Generis Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Pesonally they are probably one of if not my favorite bands of all time. I was devastated when good ol' singer died, but I think it helped them actualy. I mean media wise. Unfortunatly. I love them so much. I mean they are a great band, what do you people think of them?

Angelus Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 oh dis, and I personally I didnt think that they had another hit in them anyway. But it is a loss non the less.
treton_noir Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 *doesnt like DP* didnt rob zombie put down some vocal tracks on a DP track recently? i think i saw that somewhere... *isnt real sure of a lot of what he sees lately*
Guest Musahi Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Yes, I always love Drowning Pool. I found out about them about a month before they hit it big with "Let The Bodies Hit The Floor". It really sucks that Dave died. He died only 2 or 3 weeks before Ozzfest came to San Antonio. So I never got to see them live. :(

Bing Posted February 28, 2003 Posted February 28, 2003 [size=1][color=darkblue]All I know he died on a tour bus. Im pretty sure it wasn't drug related or anything like that. I dunno though, it could just be my imagination. I am scared, because he has the same name as my dad. Hee hee. I haven't really heard much of them, but I did hear 'Let the Bodies hit the floor' about the 6 months ago. It's a pretty cool track, but I don't really like them. They have a weird sound, and if this was a year ago, I would like them, but I don't now, my likes and dislikes of music have changed lots.[/color][/size]
treton_noir Posted March 1, 2003 Posted March 1, 2003 i cant recall the exact cause of death. in fact, im not sure if it was even released. i do know that you are correct about the "on the bus" part. ps- i think you just got my votes for avatar and sig of the year for next years Otaku Awards. *loves brad pitt* mmm...brad-pittness. *squeals like a school girl*
Bing Posted March 1, 2003 Posted March 1, 2003 [size=1][color=darkblue][quote][i]Original said by some dumb website[/i] Contrary to speculation, Drowning Pool singer Dave Williams died from natural causes, according to a coroner's toxicology report. It was concluded last Friday that the 30-year-old singer died from cardiomyopathy, a disease of the heart muscle, the report said. Williams' condition, concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, prevents blood flow from the left ventricle to the right. Williams was never diagnosed with the disease, the cause of which is unknown. The report also states nasal swabs showed no traces of cocaine and the drug was not found in his system. The Dallas-based Drowning Pool were on tour with Ozzfest when Williams' body was discovered on their tour bus in Manassas, Virginia, on August 14. A public funeral was held August 18 in Plano, Texas, and plans for a DVD chronicling Williams' life is in the works. [/quote] See, I told you it wasn't drug related. I do have a good ol' memory! Bit of a strange death though. *off topic*Thanks you Treton, Brad Pitt kicks butt*off topic*[/color][/size]
SSJ_WILLIE Posted March 1, 2003 Posted March 1, 2003 All I know about drowning pool is that they were awesome and it is a really messed up deal about what happened to dave williams. [QUOTE]I personally I didnt think that they had another hit in them [/QUOTE] I think they had what it takes to be up there with bands like godsmack, and disturbed. They were awesome.
BigCajones Posted March 3, 2003 Posted March 3, 2003 [color=limegreen]I also thought this band was indeed good and definetely would of had another song in them. I had the album 'Sinner' and I reckon it was pretty good, but repeated a bit. Could of made it a bit longer as well, but otherwise it was very good. Therefore I'm sad about Dave Williams' death. :([/color]
vegeta rocker Posted March 3, 2003 Posted March 3, 2003 The only song i enjoyed by them was tear away. But it is sad for anyones death. The music wasn't that great though, least i don't have to suffer through bodies another time now.
Sui Generis Posted March 4, 2003 Author Posted March 4, 2003 [b]Bodies[/b] was majorly over played I'll agree to that, although their other songs I think are still great! Its nice to go back and listen to [b]Bodies[/b] every once in a while, so ya know its all good. ^.^
Andy Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 [SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkRed]Well, right now they're probably one of my favorite bands. I have been listening to them and Deftones a good bit lately, because I love pretty much all their's and Drowning Pool's song's. I think both of them are awesome and have a great sound, and like I said I have been listening to them quite a bit lately, but I just recently started to really listen to them. One of my favorite song's by them is "Mute". So, in conclusion, yes, I think Drowning Pool is an awesome group. Rock on.[/COLOR][/SIZE]
